Quick Transmigration: Leisure

Chapter 141 The Festive Widow in Historical Fiction 12

Lu Zhu and her husband just got married this year.

They had no choice but to leave their hometowns. This year, with a large number of samples and heavy workload, they did not go back to their hometowns for the Spring Festival.

Often after meals, the instructor would continue fiddling with his experimental equipment or writing papers.

After Tao Pu became familiar with people, he began to show his studious side.

He frequently asks his assistant questions.

It left people scratching their heads with questions.

Children's thinking is boundless and imaginative.

He was elusive and hard to grasp, yet he often uttered surprising remarks that provided inspiration for the group.

The two assistants had a love-hate relationship.

However, in his spare time, he still likes to take Xiao Taopu out to play.

You'll also encounter many employees' family members or local children.

And so, the agricultural school became his second most frequented place, where he made more friends and gradually became more cheerful and outgoing.

Xia Youmi let him be free.

However, after being secretly injured several times, he actually took the initiative to ask her for advice on the key points of martial arts.

Considering his unwavering strength.

Xia Youmi taught him the most practical skills.

whee.

Those who bullied him are blessed.

Little Tao Pu is growing at an astonishing rate, changing every single day.

Xia Youmi then plunged into a new round of research support work.

day to day.

Persistence, experimentation, mistakes, correction.

Cultivate, harvest, breed, and continue.

In the past two years, the initial ten male-sterile rice plants have increased to more than three hundred.

Field experiments were also launched at the agricultural school.

Detailed data was recorded.

Finally, two years later.

With the completion of the thesis, the hard work and sweat of this stage have borne fruit.

The article had a huge impact, not only verifying the theoretical feasibility of breeding hybrid rice.

It also inspired rice breeding across the country, representing a leading advancement globally.

It was also a turning point in the faculty's research career.

Everyone was overjoyed and shared their happiness.

Although it was tough, everyone worked together and devoted all their time and energy.

They are no longer tender.

Working under the scorching sun has become a habit.

......

But soon, summer arrived.

A crisis is brewing.

There was already some commotion as the results emerged.

(A large section has been deleted)

This impending "crisis" has truly handed a knife to those with ill intentions.

Nowadays, there are also "working groups" assigned by higher authorities.

Disaster is imminent.

Xia Youmi privately discussed with the others that since the plants already planted in the field couldn't be moved, they could only leave them alone for the time being. They wouldn't be so arrogant as to destroy the plants that were about to ripen.

The experimental seedlings must be hidden.

This has been cultivated over generations; if it is destroyed, all the hard work of the past two years will have been for nothing.

To protect more samples, they urgently brought in a truckload of the same broken jars, which they had bought gradually with money they had scraped together from their own wages.

Because the samples were numerous and consumed quickly, the unusable batch was stored together, and Tao Pu even took a few back to cultivate seedlings himself.

Xia Youmi wanted to collect replacement jars, and even contributed several pots of rice seedlings that she had cultivated.

The older child looked very serious.

Xia Youmi did not refuse; the more replacements they had, the more hope they could preserve.

The group worked through the night to replace all the rice seedlings in the experiment.

Re-label simply.

Even if there are a few errors, the system will scan and record them, as long as you get through this ordeal.

The subsequent return to its original position should not be a problem.

Under the cover of night.

They acted boldly.

On the second day,

All the plants that can be displayed in front of you are normal plants.

Rather than the sterile rice seedlings they have cultivated over several generations.

Those seedlings used in experiments.

They were secretly transported to an orchard designated by the system, surrounded by stinking ditches and covered by saplings.

Taking advantage of the honest farmers and the convenience of tending the rice paddies, they successfully switched the dragon with a phoenix.

Until that batch of replacement seedlings.

Only when those people smashed, destroyed, shattered, and provoked me did I feel like I had survived a catastrophe.

Their experiment almost failed.

Before I could even breathe a sigh of relief,

Misfortune never comes singly.

The faculty member is about to be reassigned, and his research work may be interrupted.

Until the night before I was to leave.

The instructors' reports and materials are all prepared.

Ironically,

The "working group" went through the teachers' files overnight, preparing to find some more "trouble" and settle old scores together.

Surprisingly, a letter was found from the State Science and Technology Commission to the Provincial Science and Technology Commission.

Because that article attracted great attention from higher authorities, the letter affirmed the research and achievements of the faculty members and requested continued full support without any interference.

Thus, danger was averted and safety was achieved.

Only then did they quietly replace the seedlings.

At least the progress wasn't delayed, and the research didn't regress.

After the battle, their resolve only grew stronger.

Xia Youmi even became an unofficial member.

Upon learning of the crucial role this comrade played in the discovery of the plant, the leadership directly approved her appointment as a good assistant to the farmers.

This perfectly corresponds to the leader's advocacy of "smashing all the shackles and stumbling blocks that bind women, and striding forward with heads held high." (1)

Promote the spirit of women holding up half the sky.

He even wanted to write a big-character poster to publicize it on the spot, but Xia Youmi stopped him.

Only after repeatedly explaining the benefits of keeping a low profile was the person who was getting excited finally calmed down.

This July.

The five-person "research team" was officially established, consisting mainly of the instructor and his two student assistants, with Xia Youmi and the instructor's wife, Lü Zhu, as assistants.

From then on, the group evolved from working individually to becoming a well-funded and organized "regular army." (2)

......

With boundless enthusiasm and integrity, they harvested the new rice of the past few years. Now, new problems are looming.

Can Xia Youmi go to Hainan with me?

In the past two years of intensive experiments, it has been discovered that seeds produced from parent plants that grow in very similar locations cannot achieve increased yields at all.

Through extensive literature review and experiments, they turned their attention to wild rice in remote areas.

This aligns with the desire to shorten research cycles and conduct research in warmer climates.

Hainan Island is the first choice.

At this time, living conditions on Hainan farms were harsh, and they might also face many extreme weather events.

The instructor and his assistant had made preparations well in advance.

Once the paper is published and the project is approved and funding is secured, I will head to Hainan.

However, this time, Xia Youmi and Lü Zhu were not allowed to go together.

Now,

The teacher's son had just turned one month old, and due to both physical reasons and the responsibility of caring for the young child, Lü Zhu was unable to continue accompanying him.

Tao Pu entered elementary school in January this year and will soon begin his second semester after the start of autumn.

Although the above already knew about their awkward relationship.

I also sympathize with her plight.

Women's organizations even went to her home to help her collect alimony from the Tao family.

Because the subsidies for Tao Lao Er's sacrifice were all taken by them, and if it weren't for the support money left by Aunt Zou, they wouldn't have survived for more than a few days.

The Tao family, who have kept a low profile for so long, are once again the subject of discussion.

However, even if she made enough contributions and her family could afford it, the instructor still applied to join the group with the materials she had written on behalf of Xia Youmi.

But he was still rejected.

In the end, all they got was a verbal promise to provide support, and that was the end of it; the funds were already allocated.

The assistant was on the verge of tears. Xia Jie, who was so hardworking and capable, was still bound by her worldly identity.
